Hello All!
I recently was fortunate enough to purchase a lot of items that belonged to a former eagles scout and captain of the coastal artillery in WWII. I have had no luck idenifying one set of medals.
Can anyone here help me identify these?
Thank you so very much!

Hi,
The largest measures approximately 2 2/3" across. There are two of each kind. I did not include all of them in my photo. The circles are about the size of a penny/ They all have pinbacks of the old safety pin kind. Here is the mark on the back. Thank you for your help!

They were mixed in with all of the man's military medals from WWII and his boy scout things from the early 1930's and I have no idea what they are.

Your logo appears to match Meyers in the mid 20's
not sure what you have yet
just my opinion

It's ROTC rank collar devices Don't understand the mismatched Meyers logo because
this ROTC thing was a WWII deal, can't find a ref for prewar yet.
Maybe you can find a net reference
Considered very rare
just my opinion
